lapal_fan Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Surely the perfect trifecta for pockets in a pair of jeans is (from a left handed perspective) - Left pocket, phone. Right pocket - keys, coinage. Back pocket - wallet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogso Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Surely one of these is the most sensible solution That's right. It's a stylish bum bag. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted September 4, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted September 4, 2017 On a rare sunny day, the absence of the jacket (keys, change) can be a problem. On those occasions I have been known to reluctantly resort to the bum bag. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the worst set up I can imagine. Who wants to sit on a small bunch of keys? That's mental. The reason for no coins in the wallet is two fold. 1. I don't want to sit on my coins (because I do keep my wallet in my back pocket if I'm not wearing a jacket, which is often. 2. Fat wallets look ridiculous. Reason number 1 is why keys in the back pockets is very very strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always had a coin part in my wallets, I've always assumed they all have? Why would you have a purpose built money holding device but then put money in your pocket all loose like? Doesn't it all fall out when you sit down? Nope, just no. Wrong on all levels. Only crap wallets have space for coins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 I don't sit on my keys, I normally have my phone out if I'm sitting and will transfer the keys to the front pocket or put them in the other half's bag if I'm with her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogso Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 This is thread worthy. Coins in wallet for me, although only one or two pounds, and maybe a couple of 50p's. Silvers less than that can go in the pot at home, and coppers are THE WORK OF SATAN I HATE THEM. They **** pong, properly stink up your fingers if you touch one, they look gross, and I feel like I have been infected with the plague if I come in to physical contact with one. I can't say I have a real phobia of anything, but the closest I have to one, is copper coins. So they wouldn't go in my wallet, my pocket, or basically anywhere. If am too slow to refuse the copperage, I will wrap it up in the receipt and dispose of it in the nearest charity tin. Makes me puke. Ugh feel like I have to wash my hands just thinking about them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted September 4, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted September 4, 2017 The main thing though, is to be consistent. Whenever we go out, my wife has to look for her keys. They could be anywhere - this handbag, that handbag, this coat, that coat, in the dish by the door, on the coffee table, ad nauseam, you name it. My keys are in the right side pocket of my jacket. End of. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodders Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 (edited) @Xela look what you did, you've split villatalk irrevocably. I have a separate card holder for driving license, library card and debit/credit cards. In pocket. Wallet is generally left in man-bag with the tatty cards I barely use, but occasionally need, like the NI card, E111 card and coffee shop / waterstones ticket cards. Coins are just generally flung with abandon into bag, as I always enjoy the lottery of having a scrumble and seeing what's at the bottom. Sometimes it's 5p, sometimes it's £7. What serendipitious joy. Edited September 4, 2017 by Rodders 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I have a smaller wallet, I think it's known as a slip, to just hold a bank card, ID and some notes for when I'm going out. Saves carrying the slightly bulkier wallet around and reduces the risk of losing everything if I lose it in a drunken blunder (although, in my 31 years on this planet, I've yet to lose a phone, wallet or set of keys on a night out. Touch wood and all that) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
